I have a question for you about Mary Pope Osborne books. I remember reading a post a while back that said you use some of her books, but skip others. I was wondering if you could tell which ones you use or what ones you skip. Thanks for all your help! I love your blog and it is a great encouragement to me!-Rachel

Looks like it's raising its hands to the LORD! I saw something similar yesterday and wished for a good camera. We caught a crayfish in the creek here, and when scared, it lifted up its claws and posed like that. There were different colors on the tips, and all together it was just beautiful.

can't remember off the top of my head and all of our books are packed up in boxes right now. I urge you to proofread them yourself. Your standards may be different than mine. I also freely use white out in books for young children, so I may have whited out some parts but kept certain books from the series. I do remember skipping the Egyptian one, but that's all I can remember. : (

New Release

Collected Poems written by Charlotte Mason graduate Bryana JohnsonNow available in paperback and KINDLE

"This collection is a feast, and it goes to show that although God said 'not many wise are called,' a few do get through."
- Andrée Seu Peterson, Senior Writer, WORLD Magazine

"Bryana Johnson's first collection of poetry establishes her as a Christian poet who communicates the gutsy, bleeding beat of life and death...restoring our confidence that there are poets who labor over the word, and who have something to say that the world needs to hear."
- Nathan Harms, Director, Utmost Christian Writers Foundation

"These poems are works of elegance...In a voice both compassionate and compelling, Bryana presents her readers with works that examine what it means to be human and how our very faults and foibles can, in the end, become instruments of grace."
- Wendy Galgan, editor of Assisi

Further In

“Then he breathed upon me and took away the trembling from my limbs and caused me to stand upon my feet. And after that, he said not much, but that we should meet again, and I must go further up and further in. Then he turned him about in a storm and flurry of gold and was gone suddenly.

And since then, O Kings and Ladies, I have been wandering to find him and my happiness is so great that it even weakens me like a wound. And this is the marvel of marvels, that he called me Beloved, me who am but as a dog-”
